    Typical for my city: fresh lemonade from freshly-picked lemons. :)

    Jello is yummy.

    Berries, grapes, fruit in general.

    Lettuce & salsa

    Hard-boiled egg.

    Toast, once in a while.

    Special K popcorn chips are a really nice treat.

    Eager to read replies!!!!!

    Welllll I'm a southerner and Irish, so a meat and potatoes type gal.

    1. Homemade beef jerky- pick a low cal cut if beef, season it, dehydrate it, weigh it out in a snag Baggie and throw it in your bag. Cheap protein, chewy (or even kindof crunchy), and fairly indestructible in a hot car. Packaged beef jerky is fatty, high-cal, and full of...? With this, u know what u get.

    2. 100-cal popcorn for movies at home.

    3. Flavored water in a thermos. All day. I'm NEVER as hungry if I have "fun water" around. I like the Dasani drops.

    4. Turkey Rollups- basically a turkey sandwich without the bread and no condiment so it's not messy. Take a piece of turkey (good deli turkey) and some cheese, roll the cheese up in the turkey. I never liked bread on sandwiches anyway.

    5. " Quartering or halfing"- u know how u want some chips, say, but u think "I can't afford that calorie-wise?" Just half or quarter it. It gives I the fix u wanted but it doesn't cost you 200 cals. I had skittles the other day- hadn't had those in a looong time. I couldn't "afford" the serving size, but for 80 cals, I could split it up, weigh it, and enjoy.

    6. I'm not opposed to sugar, but I've found the semi-sweet, sugar free dark chocolates to be AMAZING and I can make it last a long time too. For 33 cals, yeah, I enjoy my "cheap" chocolate.

    7. Dry roasted edamame. I discovered these a while back in the grocery- 130 cals and it takes u a while to get thru a serving if u enjoy each little crunch. It's like coffee beans or peanuts, but better for you. More protein.

    I bet I've grossed some of the more health-conscious folks out, but hey, it's all relative. I was raised on muuuuuch worse food so this is "clean" eating for me. :)

    Starlight Chocolate-Mint flavored mints (they curb my desire for chocolate on most days). 20 calories apiece

    Nuts

    Baked apple -n- cinnamon (haven't had this one in a long time...gotta buy apples)

    Regular tortilla chips with salsa (10 chips for 140 calories is nice; they're large chips)

    Dill pickles (high sodium though)

    Rhubarb Rendezvous (baked rhubarb with hot vanilla yogurt) ...haven't had this in a while. hmm.

    Ants on a Log (celery, peanut butter, raisins)
